1. Earliest memory of going to the movies - I'm not sure which came first - watching a children's movie that included the line, "You rat, you dirty rat" (one of those cultural reference lines in a kids' movie to keep the adults entertained) or The Muppet Movie (I would have been 5).
2. Largest amount of money you've ever found - maybe $12 if $2 & $10 being found within a few hours of each other in the same vicinity counts.
3. A typical Saturday morning at your place - wake up late, do some sax practise, have a sax lesson, maybe do some grocery shopping or play / work on the computer.
4. I gravitate towards people who..can hold a decent conversation.
5. I gravitate away from people who..are arrogant.

2. $55 or something around that.
3. Sleeping in and getting cleaning done as well as bumming.
4. People who look as though they have the same kind of interests as me.
5. People who speak too loudly and want all the attention for themselves.
1. Right about the time when my brother was born when I was five my parents decided it would be a nice treat for a family friend to take me to the movies as a bit of a consolation prize for getting less attention. It was some Disney-ish children's movie and I was scared to death and hated it.

3. Depends - a typical one is getting the housework done. A fun one is going SCUBA diving. I know which one I prefer!
4. I gravitate towards people who... don't look at me in disgust because I'm overweight.
